Product Line Details: Centric Premium Ceramic Disc Brake Pad Sets
The Centric Premium Ceramic Disc Brake Pad Sets line focuses on delivering ceramic brake pads engineered for durability and quiet operation. These pads feature integrally molded friction material to ensure secure attachment and consistent wear. The inclusion of mounting hardware and pad shims simplifies installation and helps maintain proper pad alignment and noise reduction.
Technical Specifications and Features
This disc brake pad set includes four pads with an outer and inner pad height of 58.6 mm (2.307 inches), width of 123.1 mm (4.846 inches), and overall thickness of 15.4 mm (0.606 inches). The ceramic friction material provides stable friction performance and reduced brake dust compared to semi-metallic pads. The pads are prepared without a wear sensor and do not include one, so sensor compatibility is not applicable. The hardware kit number 117.45036 is included to ensure proper mounting and fitment.
Applications and Problem Solving
- Replacement for worn or damaged brake pads on Mazda Miata
- Reduces brake noise and vibration with included shims
- Improves braking consistency with ceramic friction material
- Addresses brake dust accumulation issues common with other pad types
- Ensures proper pad fit and alignment with included hardware
Installation Notes and Tips
When installing the Centric Premium Ceramic Disc Brake Pad Set 301.08900 on a Mazda Miata, ensure the mounting surfaces are clean and free of debris. Use the included hardware and pad shims to maintain correct pad positioning and reduce noise. Since these pads do not include a wear sensor, verify if your vehicle requires a sensor and install separately if needed. Follow manufacturer torque specifications for all fasteners.
Quality Assurance and Warranty
Centric brake pads are manufactured to meet or exceed OEM standards for fit, form, and function. The ceramic friction material is integrally molded to the backing plate to prevent delamination and ensure consistent performance. While specific warranty details are not provided here, Centric typically offers coverage against defects in materials and workmanship. Refer to Centric documentation for exact warranty terms.
